A Married At First Sight UK wedding didn't quite go to plan after a new bride discovered details about her husband's job. During the episode on Thursday, September 1, 31-year-old Jess was left in tears when her new groom, Pjay, 31, told her his line of work. You can find out about the show's full line-up here.
Mere minutes after finding out, Cambridge-based Jess admitted, during an interview, that she "doesn't want" to go on the pair's honeymoon. Her new husband shared his job details in true MAFS fashion - against the backdrop of a sunset. They were both showing each other pictures of 'happiness' and little did Jess realise, she was about become the exact opposite of 'happy'.
Pjay asked his new wife what her job was and she told him that she worked as a dental hygienist. She returned the question and asked: "What about you, what do you do?" With a cheeky smile, he responded: "OK, I'm going to tell you, but you can't judge," and a scared Jess replied: "OK that obviously makes me feel sick straight away." It was then that he told her that he was a "performer slash dancer slash stripper".

The revelation prompted the bride to squeal: "No you're not oh f**k off. Are you actually?" As Pjay confirmed that what he was saying was true, a shell-shocked Jess replied: "S**t I don't know what to say about that."
Addressing the specifics, Pjay added: "I'm more of a dancer but, if you had to title it, it's a stripper." She visibly choked back her emotion and in a private piece to camera, admitted: "I don't want to go out with a stripper. No offence, I get it's your job and everything but that's just not what I'm about.
"I just feel like how are you going to look after me? I literally feel like I'm going to cry."
After expressing fears about her mum's reaction to his day job, Jess was seen breaking down, dabbing tears away as she wailed: "I just want to go home."
